MBABANE – Playing with the big guns!

Local DJ !Sooks will perform alongside  celebrated accomplished South African (SA) Deep House stars next month in Johannesburg. Born Sukoluhle Dlamini !Sooks’s musical exploits have established him as one of Southern Africa’s top Electronic music talents. The DJ has recently collaborated with Velemseni, a local artist, for the hit single titled ‘Musa’.

Spiritual

‘Musa’ the profound House single, taken from the siSwati word ‘Umusa’ loosely translated to grace. It’s a spiritual song that conveys a message of gratitude for the gift of grace. Velemseni, whose name means ‘one who comes from grace’, renders a captivating performance over an enchanting melody composed by !Sooks on this song.
